The three-acre property features private Medina River access at the back of the lot (5 minute walk), with a stunning view of the bluffs overlooking the river. For those hankering for in-town time, the nightlife, food, and antiquing of Bandera is right down the road.



Relax in three outdoor gathering spaces: a second-story deck off the master bedroom; a lower-level deck with built-in benches, and a side patio furnished with rocking chairs. The upper deck is a prime location to take in the wide-open Texas skies, day or night. Nothing tastes better than BBQ in the fresh air, and there's a charcoal grill for just that. While away a quiet night and admire the starry skies above the fire pit out back. One of the kids' favorites here is the giant-sized checkerboard, a fun twist on a family favorite. The property also has an enclosed dog run (dogs only, please; no cats). Smoking is allowed, but in the fire pit area only.



The fully remodeled Retreat has a bright, cheerful atmosphere that exudes its own refreshing energy. All sleeping spaces are upstairs, with king, queen, bunk, and roll-away beds that sleep up to eight guests (upper bunks and roll-aways are specifically for kids) and Roku-enabled TVs in each room. There's a full bath with a shower/tub combo upstairs, and a half-bath with a washer and dryer on the main level. All the bed and bath linens you'll need are included. The open-concept living, dining, and kitchen areas are furnished with modern furniture and appliances, and tech pluses like smart TV and Wifi. The entire guest home is kept comfortable year round with central air and heat, and ceiling fans throughout.

    We greatly enjoyed our stay at the River Rock Retreat in Bandera, TX. This was our first time traveling with our dog and we were pleased to have a fully fenced yard with plenty of room to run. The river was easy to access and the kids loved exploring and catching minnows. The home was plenty big and comfortable for our family of 5. It was simple to check in and check out. Everything was just as described in the description. Bandera and neighboring towns were fun to explore. We enjoyed eating at OST and bring your own steak night at the 11th Street Cowboy Bar. Thanks for the hospitality!

    Our family had a great time at the River Rock Retreat. The home was clean, comfy, and perfect size for the 4 of us and our dog. We enjoyed the location; short walk to the water and close to pop into town. We saw deer on property and 2 foxes run from across the street down the neighbors driveway. The house was well stocked with everything, had comfortable beds, and was fully fenced so our dog could roam (although she’s not terribly adventurous and didn’t go far from our side). We’ve already recommended this property to a friend and will certainly consider repeat stays when coming to the area again.

    The house was very conveniently located to our land we will be building. All was good as far as appliances, kitchen tools, very comfortable beds, great porch, access to stream, all fenched in for dog safety. Unfortunately propane grill was rusted out so we used charcoal grill. Overall we enjoyed.

    Enjoyed this location with family for last minute sitting break trip. The kids got their Amusement fun, and the wife and I got a bit of R&R. Perfect blend for a much needed get away.
